We’re a very small, family-run business and since conception we’ve always functioned in a bare bones capacity here at FARMcurious. We’ve depended quite heavily on the generosity of volunteers and close friends to help us with our day-to-day tasks. However, we’ve reached a point where we’re growing a bit bigger than our britches!

While we’re not quite ready to hire paid help (someday!), we are ready to take on an official intern. We’re thrilled to enter into this new phase of growth and we hope you’ll help us spread the word to find a good fit. The description is posted below. While we would prefer someone in the Bay Area, we may make exceptions for the right candidate.

Will you help us share our job description?
